They're training dogfish to do this, a bit like sheep dogs really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side, they're contributing a bit of money to London with the congestion and emissions charges Brexit: Fishing firms hold London protest over disruption - BBC News I see the police have fined 15 truckers £200 each for making "unnecessary journeys" - it's turned out to be a pretty expensive day for them, when you also add in the diesel costs. They should have their trucks taken off them and crushed for breaking the rules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment they cannot do this due to red tape and problems with new paperwork. Our government did not make provision for this in the deal they agreed. Boris says this is just teething problems. Consequently some fishermen will try and land their catch in Denmark to remain solvent. Lovely twist to the truth. Nothing changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have this invisible border across the Irish Sea What goes across the sea ?Boats Who has boats ? fishermen Who have missed out on the Brexit bonus ?

The fishing industry has had more than enough time to prepare for these issues - in the main, it's believed that as an industry, they massively wanted us to leave the EU, so they've got their wish. If they're not ready, then they've only got themselves to blame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
